He was born in 1878, and he is buried in Lebanon, PA. Kate, as you probably know, was born in 1876 and is buried in Pine Grove, PA. Their parents were John P.

I checked the death certificate of George Washington Gibson in 1925 and found that it does indeed state that his mother's maiden name was Engle but that isn't to say the registrar didn't make a mistake. The information was given by Mrs. George Gibson, who I presume was the wife of the deceased and I would think she didn't make mistake of that magnitude. 2015-03-19 04:49:02Zragtagrelicshttp://boards.ancestry.com/localities.northam.usa.states.pennsylvania.pghs/1881.1/mb.ashxGeorge Washington Gibson 1854-1925 Pine Grove Twsphttp://boards.ancestry.com/localities.northam.usa.states.pennsylvania.pghs/1881/mb.ashx

Thank you so much for your reply Patrick. I was a bit obsessed with all of this for about 2 months. I visited 3 cemeteries. Kizer's is close to my home in Lake Ariel and where all of my Dad's siblings are buried. My Dad, David Swoyer, just passed away last July. He wanted to be buried next to my Mom in a different cemetery nearby. I visited Fairview in Elmhurst, to find William's grave, whom if I understand correctly, is your Dad? I also went to the Lutheran cemetery in Pine Grove, and finally found Jacob and Rebecca's grave. Though it was so badly worn it was very difficult to read. After that, the trail went cold. So, I was hoping to visit the historical society up the road from the cemetery, but just haven't been able to find the time to get back there. I thought there might be some records available there, or that maybe they could point me in the right direction. I travel alot between PA and Maryland b/c I work in D.C. <br><br>Jacob's birth must be recorded somewhere, and I would think he and Rebecca have a marriage certificate too. But, you have quite a bit more information, though I wasn't able to find much else on ancestry's website. It's very possible I'm just not searching correctly though. I'd really like to correspond more. My email address is <a href="mailto://intact_one@hotmail.com">intact_one@hotmail.com</a>.<br><br>Again, thanks so much for responding,<br>Sonya 2015-02-02 01:01:55Zsonyzeehttp://boards.ancestry.com/localities.northam.usa.states.pennsylvania.pghs/1734.1.1.1.1.1/mb.ashxRe: Jacob &amp; Rebecca Swoyer Pinegrove Township Pennsylvaniahttp://boards.ancestry.com/localities.northam.usa.states.pennsylvania.pghs/1734.1.1.1.1/mb.ashx
Hi,<br><br>I am the grandson of William's brother Otis. Jacob is my 2x great-grandfather. My old postings had me as diggingupbones_1. I have a lot of information and I think someone I shared with back in 2008 posted it to ancestry. Not sure if they posted the Last Will of Jacob Swoyer. I have a copy that my uncle picked up at the court house in Schuylkill County. <br><br>My theory is that Jacob Swoyer was born Jacob Zweyer and he had a brother Lewis. Lewis shows living with him and his family on the. I also found in Lewis Swoyer's Civil War file that my 2x great-grandmother Rebecca filled out an affidavit stating that she knew Lewis and his wife were married in 1872. She witnessed it because their original marriage certificate was lost in a fire. He was filing for his Civil War pension and needed proof.<br><br>From RootsWeb:<br>Children of Catharine Hopp and Thomas Zweyer are:<br> i. Anna Zweyer was born 16 FEB 1813. <br> ii.

I too, am a descendant of Jacob and Rebecca Swoyer. My maiden name was Swoyer and my grandfather was Clayton E, born to William H., one of Jacob and Rebecca's sons. Over the past few weeks, I've collected quite a bit of information and came to the same hurdle with Jacob and Rebecca. My husband and I have visited several cemeteries in the past week, including what we think is St. Jacob's where they are listed as being buried. The dead end is probably because of a name change at some point along the way, but it's not clear where it happened. We weren't able to find their graves this time around. It was dark and really cold by the time we got there, and we had no mapping to go by. I've since found something that lists the row they are buried in and we plan to go back in the next couple of days. There is a historical society which might provide some answers as well. :-)2015-01-02 23:38:26Zsonyzeehttp://boards.ancestry.com/localities.northam.usa.states.pennsylvania.pghs/1734.1.1.1/mb.ashxRoy franklin" Boom" Zimmerman (1913-1991)http://boards.ancestry.com/localities.northam.usa.states.pennsylvania.pghs/1876/mb.ashx

Hi, Dave<br><br>Yes, Carrie is my grandmother's sister. <br><br>My grandparent's story is quite interesting. Neither family approved of their marriage (Protestant married a Catholic--wasn't a good thing back in those days). Carrie is the one sister who made an effort to maintain a relationship with my grandmother.

Jeannie,<br> If there was ever someone who would understand your grandparents dilemma of marrying an Irish Catholic, it would be her sister who married Patrick Ryan! Does it get any more Irish?<br> I’m looking into the Sarah Zimmerman line (1848-1914) I found her death certificate where it has her parents as John and Katherine (Strouphar) Zimmerman. Did you happen to notice how many John Zimmermans there were in 1850?!?!?! There were three families from South-West Schuylkill County with a Sarah with the parents John and Katherine. I’d like to be able to identify which is her family.<br> To be able to zoom in on Sarah, I’m trying to find her birth or baptism record (the dates of birth on the death certificate were rarely accurate). Also I’d like to find a marriage record for her and John Israel Neidlinger. I’m assuming they would have been married in the late 1860’s.<br> Did you ever research at the Pine Grove Historical Society? I haven’t been there in many years when I was researching my family. Next time I’ll be working on my wife’s side. <br> In response please also cc my email at <a href="mailto://dpukas@comcast.net">dpukas@comcast.net</a><br>2014-11-12 15:31:56Zdpukas1http://boards.ancestry.com/localities.northam.usa.states.pennsylvania.pghs/1868.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.3.1.1/mb.ashxRe: Christian and Elizabeth (Sharp) Zernhttp://boards.ancestry.com/localities.northam.usa.states.pennsylvania.pghs/743.1.1/mb.ashx

Hello! Your mother has been a mystery to me. If I have the right one. First let me start off that I have Jeremiah L. Glore married Nora Matilda Uhler. They had:<br>1. Mary Emma Glore b. 1914/1915 died 1915. Buried Stanhope Lutheran Church, PA<br>2. Elmer J. Glore b June 22, 1916 Schuylkill d Nov 19, 1971 married a Betty Jean<br>3. Charlie Glore b. ? died?<br>4. Bertha Rebecca Glore b Sept 20, ???? married Rohland Brannon/Brenna<br>5. Roy G. Glore b. Oct 2, 1918 Schuylkill d. Oct 9, 1976 buried St. John's Pine Grove<br>6. William R. (maybe Roger) b. Oct 29, 1920 d. April 8, 1953 buried St. John's Pine Grove. Married Erma Lengel<br>7. Albert C. Glore b.July 15, 1923 d. Sept 24, 1977 buried St. John's Pine Grove married Mary W. Wertz.<br>They were all born in Schuylkill County PA. Does this sound like the right family? I have some pictures. Jeremiah Glore would be my great grandmothers brother. Their parents were George Washington Glore and Emma Elizabeth Lehman. If this is the right family can you tell me if your mother died in Ohio? And when did she die? And do you know her birth year? 2014-12-18 22:20:19Zpelfreycindyhttp://boards.ancestry.com/localities.northam.usa.states.pennsylvania.pghs/1843.3.1/mb.ashxRe: Glore/Klahr Families of Schuylkill Countyhttp://boards.ancestry.com/localities.northam.usa.states.pennsylvania.pghs/1843.3.1.1.2/mb.ashx
By the way my tree is found under Getz and Hillbish Family Branches and Stumps. If you can't find it that way, do a search for William Getz Jr. born Jan 15, 1898 East Hanover, Lebanon Co., PA married to Emma Eleanore Hillbish. Those are my grandparents. If you follow my grandmother's line (Emma) her mother was a Glore. A sister to your Jeremiah Lehman Glore. Lehman was his middle name. I was told by Jeremiah's nephew John Mitchell Glore Jr. that Jeremiah was in jail at sometime for moonshining wine. 2014-12-20 00:44:40Zpelfreycindyhttp://boards.ancestry.com/localities.northam.usa.states.pennsylvania.pghs/1843.3.1.1.2/mb.ashxRe: Glore/Klahr Families of Schuylkill Countyhttp://boards.ancestry.com/localities.northam.usa.states.pennsylvania.pghs/1843.3.1.1.1/mb.ashx

That's how I did the pictures on find a grave. I took my book with and followed the book along with the headstones to get the info on them correctly. In Schuylkill County, Pa Archives Volume I, the cemetery is called Strubhar's German Baptist church Cemetery and yes its the same. I don't know where you would find the records. I think it even mentions it as having a sign then. Maybe if you call a funeral home in Pine Grove and ask if they know who the caretaker is there. Or if you were going to purchase a plot there who would you call. That's what I did with a different cemetery. Did you try going to find-a-grave? I took pics of all the headstones. maybe you can match them up.

If you try calling Snyder's funeral home they might be able to tell you who the caretaker is NOW.

I checked in my book and they are not in it. It was ompiled in 1982 then again in 1992. And I just did it last summer. What are their dates? I can check my other records.
